[R] load() failed to load .Rdata file in AWS-Ububtu

Hi again,

I hope this is the right place to post my question on running R within
Ubuntu, however if not, any pointer on right distribution list will be
helpful.

I am currently using R in Ubuntu which is hosted in Amazon - AWS.

I have a .Rdata file in AWS which I am trying to load in R. Used
following code, however, fails to load showing some permission issue.
However that same .Rdata file is getting loaded perfectly when I try
in my regular iOS.

Below is my code and corresponding result :

ubuntu at ip-172-31-23-148:~$ R


R version 3.4.2 (2017-09-28) -- "Short Summer"

Error in readChar(con, 5L, useBytes = TRUE) : cannot open the connection

In addition: Warning message:

  cannot open compressed file '/srv/shiny-server/Dat.Rdata', probable
reason 'Permission denied'

Error in gzfile(file, "rb") : cannot open the connection

In addition: Warning message:

Can someone help me to understand where it went wrong with Ubuntu? I
also tried with changing the extension from .Rdata to .RData, however
observing the same error.

Any pointer will be highly appreciated.

Thanks for your time.

[R] load() failed to load .Rdata file in AWS-Ububtu

Hi Christofer,
The directory /srv/shiny-server would normally be owned by the root user.
Your options would seem to be to either (1) bring up the R session as root
(dangerous)
or (2) try copying the file to your local directory and read it from there
(if allowed).
e.g. from the Unix shell:> cd ~   (i.e. cd to your home directory)
> cp /srv/shiny-server/Dat.Rdata .   (Note the '.' at the end. This
may not
work - if not then you can try the following> sudo cp /srv/shiny-server/Dat.Rdata . (if you have sudo privileges - only
do this if the former command did not work)> chmod 777 Dat.Rdata  (a bit of overkill - again preface by sudo if itdoes not work without it)

Then in your R session you can do the load from the file in this location.
R>  load("~/Dat.Rdata")

HTH,
Eric

[R] load() failed to load .Rdata file in AWS-Ububtu

Thanks Eric for your pointer. However I just altered the argument of
load() function a little bit to get that loaded. Below is the line
what I tried.

ubuntu at ip-172-31-23-148:~$ R


R version 3.4.2 (2017-09-28) -- "Short Summer"

However it still failing when I try that within my shiny app in AWS.

Below are my ui.R and server.R files respectively.

library(shiny)

# Define UI for miles per gallon application
fluidPage(
      fluidRow(
        column(12,
          tableOutput('table')
        )
      )
    )

server.R :

library(shiny)

load("/home/ubuntu/Dat.RData")

shinyServer(function(input, output) {
output$table = renderTable(head(data.frame(1:20, 1:20), 20))
})

with above setup when I deploy my shiny app I get below error :

18.221.184.94:3838 says
The application unexpectedly exited
Diagnostic information has been dumped to the JavaScript error console.

appreciate any help to get rid of this error.

Thanks for your time.
